General Installation Advice
Polyester Thermal Batts are safe and easy to install in the walls and ceiling. Batts are supplied in two widths to suit
standard housing construction, this being 430mm widths for 450mm centres and 580mm for 600mm centres. As the
batts are safe and soft, Polyester Thermal Batts are easily torn or cut with a pair of industrial scissors or shears. Off cuts
can be used to fill corners crevices and gaps, eliminating any waste. For ceilings, Polyester Thermal Batts are installed by
laying them on top of the ceiling between the ceiling joists. A 50mm gap should be allowed around flue pipes, ceiling
fans and 200mm gap around recessed lights. For walls, the Batts are placed between the wall studs before the plasterboard is put in place.
If required, lightly staple or tape insulation into position. No special clothing, gloves or masks required for installation.
Allow up to one month for products subjected to compression packing to recover to nominal thickness. |
